Future
plans

English
to Swahili Machine Translation

While we still continue to improve the Swahili to English MT system, we
also work on the English to Swahili MT system. Also in it, we use
rule-based methods as far as possible, and the use of statistical
methods is used for solving such semantic ambiguity, where reliable
rules cannot be written.

Speech-to-speech
translation

Along
with the
text-to-text MT, we plan to boost the speech recognition
and speech production research on Swahili. This will be done
in cooperation with the research teams that have excelled in
speech
technology.
